Look! the smile on his face shows为什么用一般现在时

Look！The smile on his face_______ that something good must have happened to him.

横线处填shows。

想知道为什么填一般现在时，而不是现在进行时或者现在完成时，这里的show应该翻译成什么比较好呢？

我觉得show在此是静态意义，表示的是一种状态的存在。牛津词典指出show为表明、说明这个语义时通常不用进行体。一下为牛津的释义和例句：

(not usually used in the progressive tenses)

to make something clear; to prove something

show (that)… The figures clearly show that her claims are false.
